5 wrestling legends who are set to make convention appearances in 2018

#4 Batista - FloridaSupercon

Batista will be at Florida SuperCon in July 2018

Former WWE Champion Batista has made quite the splash on the silver screen over the past few years, ever since he walked away from the company back in 2014. Batista is heavily rumoured to be headlining the WWE Hall of Fame class in 2018, but he is also already scheduled to appear at the Florida Supercon in July 2018.

The event takes place at the Greater Ft. Lauderdale/Broward Convention Center from July 12th until 15th with Batista down to appear on all four days. Former NXT star Leva "Blue Pants" Bates will also be at the event representing the wrestling world.

It is thought that Batista has now made the switch over the Comic-Con appearances based on the fact that he is now known as the star of Guardians of the Galaxy to many of the younger generation, perhaps more than he is known as a former WWE superstar.
